Hi, Mike. I spent nearly every waking hour at work since the first weekend 
of the 10 GHz contest trying to get stuff done before leaving town for two 
weeks, and now I'm well over 1,000 miles away. I downloaded the file that 
you asked about, and it seems to be current. It is possible that I have a 
slightly newer version on my computer at home, but I don't think so, as I 
can't see anything in the version from the web that screams out "fix me!". 
That's not to say that improvements can't be made, just that I don't see 
anything that is in need of immediate change.

I put my own log from the first weekend into that version, and had no 
problems with it. I have 24,373 points so far, 128 QSO's with 21 unique 
operators, and best DX so far is 296 Km to some character out in EN13vc. 
(Thanks for getting on as much as you could for the first weekend, Mike.)

I'm hoping I can join the rover pack for the second weekend, just a little 
over two weeks away from now!

As always, if anyone is having problems with the use of the 10 GHz logger 
spreadsheet, let me know and I will be glad to help. If anyone needs a 
version that does not use Visual Basic for Applications code (e.g., if you 
are using the Open Office spreadsheet program, with no access to Microsoft 
Excel), let me know and I can probably put together a version that will 
work for you.
